When she sang at the Canadian Olympics the US people watching with my Mom in Florida all insisted K.D. Lang was a man. But, K.D. Lang is a woman. She isn’t the typical woman celebrity looking like she just stepped off a glamorous magazine cover.
Get over the way she looks, the way she dresses and the whole beef thing (likely only the Canadians will know about that). The only thing you really need (and will want to) know about K.D. Lang is that she can sing.
She sings like there is no tomorrow and I feel that way when I play her CDs. I wish my machine was one which would just play the same CD over and over until the power finally went out and I could just keep hearing it all in my head anyway. When K.D. Lang sings you feel brought into the music, it becomes sound rather than something comprised of music written by human hands.
Not every song will be that loved but there are enough on this album to keep me happy.
